TOBACCO GROWERS
TIKE FIRM STAND
Appeal To Supreme court; Ope? SI
Wore Floor* In 5ortk Carolina.
(8. D. Frissell)
After an almost unbroken series of
legal victories, and favorable rerdicts
for the Tobacco Growers Cooperative
Association in three North Carolina
.courts last week where injunctions
restraining members from selling
their tobtcco on the outside were sus
tained, Judges Geo. W. Connor of
"Wilson and J. Lloyd Horton of Farm
?tlle ruled against the association in
its interpretation of the contract as
holding the member-growers liable
for all tobacco grown^ipon their land.
An immediate appeal Co the Supreme'
Court of North Carolina will be taken
by the Tobacco Association.
The Directors of the association last
Monday reaffirmed their policy to
hold all member landlords liable for
delivery of all tobacco grown upon
their land, at the monthly meeting of
the board. The elected leaders of
the organized tobacco farmers of the
Carolinas and Virginia expressed the
j desire to treat all members in a fair
i*pd uniform manner by sustaining
I the repeated demands of loyal mem
bers to protect them against the prac
tice of allowing tobacco from farms
Of members to compete on the auc
tion markets against their own. They
also decided to temporarily suspend
penalties against member* from whose
lands tobacco has been sold at auc
tion. while others have avoided such
penalties for the time being through
*n appeal to the courts.
Deductions will be made against all
members who have failed to deliver
their entire crop to the association if
and when the Supreme Court sustains
the opinion of the association direc
tors in their interpretation of the con
tract .
T. C. Watkns, Jr., Manager of Ware
nouses for the Association, has an
nounced the complete list of the as
sociation's markets in the Old Belt
of North Carolina as follows: Bur

* The tobacco crop of Eastern North
Carolina is proving a distinct disap
pointment to the farmers and ware
housemen of that section and was de
?<=r'bed la8t week ln dispatches from
WJleon, N. C. as the sorriest crop of
tobacco raised in that section fot
S^ars. Last week's average on the
Wilson auction market dropped below

prices at the auction houses have been
elated over the high cash advances,
which continue to bepsTfflhim on the

COACH CTTDEKWOOD EOISDINS
LOU8BCB6 HIGH FXTO FINE
COXDITION
Under the direction of Coach Un
derwood, the Louisburg High School
football eleven Is rapidly rounding In
to form, and when the local team
makes Its Initial appearance on the
home gridiron It will show well bal
anced strength and speed in every po
sition.
The first game on the home ground
will be Oct. 2nd with Oxford High.
This game will show the ability, or
lack of ability of the various men.
It calls for a q,uper-human effort on
the part of the players, particularly
on account of the lack of any funda
mental knowledge of the game before
this season. The squad has been for
tunate thus far. No serious Injuries
have been sustained by any members,
although there have been some of a
minor nature. The hard work in con
nection with getting ready for the
game with Oxford is practically com
pleted. The time until the game will
be utilized In perfecting a few plays.
Many of the acquisitions to the team
are continuing to make progress
They are showing an aptitude for ab
sorbing Instructions felven th^m.
"Bud" Taylor will doubtless get the
call at center for this game, he Is
showing great form and ability for
this position. Smlthwlck. J. Taylor
and Bledsoe are the candidates for
the guard positions, who will start at
these positions Is a question. The
tackles will likely be taken care of by
Mills and Wilson, they are hitting
hard and fast. "Bob" Alston will get
the call for an end, he is showing
great ability In cutting down eater
ference, while Bartholomew is "mak
ing a strong bid for the other end po
sition. The backfleld is a great prob
lem. but the greatest seemingly Is the
position of quarterback. Murphy has
been working at this position, and U
using good judgment to b.e an unex
perienced man. Cooper and Elmore
are being groomed to do the punting
and It will be hard to tell who will
get the call In Tuesday's game. Yar
borough. "Hep" Stovall. Whelcss.
Ford and Williamson are all working
hard and its quite likely that all of
these men will get a chance in the
coming contest.
Tbe ability of the team as a whole
is as yet an unknown quantity, al
though the abHlty and quality of the
Individuals Is for the most part
known. Just what they will do. I
cannot say, but I feel confident that
the boys in whom I put my faith to
carry the colors of their school li
this initial game on the home zrid
Iron will uphold -their own as well as
their school's honor, and fight to th<i
last minute. So come out and show
lha. boys that you are Interested. (Jet.

Our community was saddened on
Friday afternoon, Sept. 18 at 2 o'clock

the hardest thing for her to bear, al
though she was always faithful or al
ways trusting her Ix>rd and Master.
She was 83 years old. Her husband
preceded her to the grave some 15 or
16 years ago. She had always lived
with her son Thomas t*. Hunt, who
was the baby child and she seems to
be miserable when away from him
